Some times midwives are not accurate in measurement the scan will check the babies size rather that tje size of your uterus.. It may just be that your baby is well tucked in try not to worry my midwife was wrong with the size of my baby telling me that even t hough I was measuring big my baby was only going to be 8lbs... He was 11lbs. X_________________

I measured average the whole way through and gave birth to a very petite 6lb 4oz girl a week early! I dont think they can really tell to be honest and even if the baby is small it doesnt necessarily mean its not healthy! x x
